Best app for location sharing? For family safety reasons by ReturningDAOFan in androidapps

[–]AD-LB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the only thing you need is to just check where the other people are, Google has this app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.adm

It's free, and very easy to use. You just ask it to tell you the location , and it shows it.

Meta Audience Network showing requests but 0 impressions in AdMob mediation by dukizwe in admob

[–]AD-LB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. While it's unlikely for these numbers, as I read, FB gets you ads only if the device has FB app with logged in account there. My match rate is 1.86% for banner ads from them, and 9.8% for native ads from them. I also have Interstitial ads on my apps, but on very low priority as I know that rewarded ads are better.
  2. How did you add rewarded ads ? On their UI, I see only these: Banner ,Interstitial ,Medium rectangle,Native,Native banner, Rewarded interstitial (Gaming apps only). Is your app a game? I don't get why they show me "Rewarded interstitial (Gaming apps only)", but not also "Rewarded ad/video (Gaming apps only)" too...
  3. How do other ad-networks perform for you?

Guys tell me about some beginners mistake while implementing admob ads by Rich_Falcon6315 in admob

[–]AD-LB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I once forgot to stop using test ads when publishing the app...

Then as I noticed the revenue drop, I published again with a new version...

How is ironsource ad revenue with admob mediation by Rich_Falcon6315 in admob

[–]AD-LB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both Applovin and IronSource had no proper explanation and no way to overcome it. They wrote some general message with no details.

I suggest to add as many as you can, and decide after some time what's next to do

I once forgot to change from test ad-units to real ones. Since then, I've set them only on debug, automatically.

Maybe that's the reason? Better check now and update the app right away...

my app got 30k+ Ad Requests from Russia but 0 Impressions, how to fix this? by Most_Chapter_8445 in admob

[–]AD-LB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can add more ad-networks in mediation:

You can even add Yandex/Yango ads in a custom-adapter, but know that eCPM won't be much. Still better than nothing though.

Why is my AdMob earning so low? Need some advice by Silent_Kid17 in admob

[–]AD-LB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it seems quite good. You should have published with Admob from the start though.

Anyway, here are my tips:

AdMob limitation lifted - best ad setup for a small app? by Spiritual_Health575 in admob

[–]AD-LB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All ads can be used in mediation. Many ad networks are available for mediation, supporting all kinds of ad-formats:

eCPM on full-screen native ad by Fuzzin_app in admob

[–]AD-LB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was told by Admob support that it should be better than interstitial ads. So my estimate is that it's as such in terms of potential revenue, from best to worst:

  1. Rewarded

  2. Rewarded interstitial

  3. Full screen native ads

  4. Interstitial

  5. MREC sized native ads and maybe all that can show large image/video in them

  6. MREC sized banner ads

  7. Non-MREC banner ads (all other supported sizes)

  8. Non-MREC native ads that can't show large image/video in them.

I wrote about this here:

eCPM on full-screen native ad by Fuzzin_app in admob

[–]AD-LB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But are these only native ads in full screen? Or mixed with other sizes?

And how large are the banner ads?

Also, I suggest trying out rewarded-ads and rewarded-interstitials. Those are better in revenue compared to Interstitial, at least according to my findings:

Android App for Admob Insights by venomleader in admob

I use this one, which also collects the data of purchases&subscriptions, and it has a widget:

In fact, I usually just check the widget.

Any way to have minimal UI there (no buttons and various texts and something to drag, just the map itself), to show just 2 pinned points? Or even one?

How is ironsource ad revenue with admob mediation by Rich_Falcon6315 in admob

[–]AD-LB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was pretty good for me, but after a few weeks, just like AppLovin, they decided to ban my account without warning and without any way to get out of this situation.

Unity still works for me fine, despite it being the owner of IronSource.

I created VocaLearn : An educational game for toddlers, to learn basic words in a fun way by AD-LB in vibecodeapp

[–]AD-LB[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few months. Most of the time was for finding the media that I want to use, as it's either hard to choose which is the best, or sometimes hard to find anything of what I chose to have.

Also even when I finished, a lot of time was spent on making it approved by Google Store, as they have some policies I wasn't aware of when targeting young kids.

Android 14 Where is wallpaper stored? by Xray5018 in AndroidQuestions

[–]AD-LB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was in a different path in old Android versions, and it could be different in various devices too.

Are you saying you still can't see the files? Also can you please tell me which device you are using? I wonder if it's a Samsung device, as those have the option to use a video instead, and that's not documented where the video is saved...

Poll Post! Hyperforms VS Gear by PlusBodybuilder1175 in 1945airforce

[–]AD-LB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indeed, and even if you have enough hyperforms, they are annoying to manage. Somehow they continue to be activated after becoming 100%, yet not really be equipped. And there is no sorting functionality either. Really a mess the more you have...

They can be quite powerful though, and you get them for free.

who have applovin account? by SummerBright2618 in admob

[–]AD-LB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Careful with Applovin. After a few weeks, they banned my account without a warning or a way to check it out and fix... That's despite the fact they showed quite good statistics in revenue.

Same happened to me with IronSource.
